I don't much like the idea of people trying to copy my ideas, but on the
other hand, I'm not going to lose any sleep over it. These thieves are
spending their time trying to "keep up with the Joneses", but by doing
that, they're never going to BEAT the Joneses because they don't have
any original ideas of their own. Am I making sense?

I would prefer to spend my time dreaming up the NEXT idea, rather than
messing around with patents. Here's the next idea, if you're interested:
